Chapter 793: Chapter 741 Haunted

Han Xin’er’s arrival promptly ended the farcical lecture; Liu Hun, a teacher from the medical department, had accidentally given a vocal music class to students from the music department. News of the incident quickly spread across the entire school, and Liu Hun once again became a hot topic on the Southeast University’s BBS.

Although Sun Mengmeng had already left Southeast University, managing to date one of the university’s beauties was definitely legendary. Add to that Liu Hun’s own identity—not only was he skilled in medicine, but he also knew vocal music—he became an irresistibly desirable figure among some female students and teachers.

After resting in his office for a day, it was only in the evening that Liu Hun took a textbook and headed towards the medical building.

According to the schedule Han Xin’er had given him during the day, there was an anatomy class that evening. Liu Hun didn’t think too much about it; he was free anyway.

“Professor Lin…” Just as Liu Hun reached the bottom of the teaching building, a clear voice called out from behind him.

Following the voice, he saw Yao Yu holding a book, looking somewhat pale as she gazed at him; it seemed as if Yao Yu had been waiting for him on purpose.

“Yao Yu, are you alright?” Liu Hun asked, puzzled.

“I’m fine. Can I sit in on Professor Lin’s class?” Yao Yu asked, a forced smile appearing on her delicate face.

Although Liu Hun couldn’t understand why Yao Yu, a music student, would suddenly be interested in a medical class—especially an anatomy class, which most girls, even those studying medicine, generally disliked—he nevertheless nodded in agreement without asking further. Everyone had their secrets; if Yao Yu chose not to share, he naturally wouldn’t pry.

Just as they entered the teaching building, a chilling aura hit them, causing Yao Yu, who was walking beside Liu Hun, to shiver abruptly, her face growing even paler.

“Although most of the bodies in this anatomy building are indeed corpses, they are just corpses after all,” Liu Hun consoled, noticing Yao Yu’s slight trembling.

A few minutes later, Liu Hun arrived at the classroom door and took out the schedule from his book to triple-check the room number. After confirming it was correct, Liu Hun couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.

“What’s the matter, Professor Lin?” Yao Yu, seeing Liu Hun’s slightly unnerved expression and sensing even more fear, asked after a moment’s hesitation.

“It’s nothing. I’ll make a phone call.” Saying this, Liu Hun pulled out his phone and dialed Han Xin’er’s number.

As soon as the call connected, Liu Hun said in annoyance, “I’m giving you two options, either I quit, or you come over to the classroom right now!”

With a snap, Liu Hun hung up the phone, extremely irked.

“Professor Lin, why is there no one in the classroom?” Yao Yu, having heard Liu Hun vent at Han Xin’er, looked surprised. Her eyes flickered as though deep in thought. After a while, she asked Liu Hun with a puzzled expression.

“I suspect this is Han Xin’er messing with me! Who the hell schedules an anatomy class in the middle of the night? I was already wondering about it during the day,” Liu Hun said, sounding quite displeased.

After a while, Han Xin’er arrived at the classroom door. From afar, she saw Liu Hun looking displeased.

“Yao Yu, aren’t you from the music department? What are you doing here?” Han Xin’er approached the two and couldn’t help but express her confusion upon seeing Yao Yu there.

“It’s like this, Dean Han, I was just curious, so I decided to attend Professor Lin’s class,” Yao Yu explained.

Han Xin’er didn’t dwell on it and nodded before turning her attention to Liu Hun.

“Liu Hun, what exactly do you want? You had agreed with me in the beginning!” Han Xin’er was upset the moment she saw Liu Hun; what he had said during the day was still vividly etched in her mind.

“I kindly reminded you about your asymmetrical chest caused by an imbalance of yin and yang. I get that you didn’t appreciate my goodwill, but was it necessary to mess with me like this? Who holds a class at midnight with no students around? How am I supposed to teach?” Liu Hun, questioned by Han Xin’er, was also starting to lose his temper.

“I…” Just as Han Xin’er was about to speak, she glanced out of the corner of her eye at the classroom. Indeed, the classroom was empty, and a look of confusion crossed her beautiful eyes.

“I, Han Xin’er, am not that petty. The schedule was arranged this way. Could it be that the counselor didn’t notify the students?” Han Xin’er suggested, her beautiful eyes full of doubt.

Pushing open the classroom door, Han Xin’er stepped inside. Just two seconds after entering, Han Xin’er burst out of the classroom, her face stricken with terror, her hands clutching Liu Hun’s arms tightly as she hid behind him.

“There’s… there’s a ghost inside…” Han Xin’er’s voice trembled.

As soon as she said this, Yao Yu’s face also showed a touch of fear. The anatomy teaching building was famously associated with many ghost stories in the school, and with both of them being girls, facing an empty classroom naturally brought some fear.

As Liu Hun felt the uneven pressure of Han Xin’er’s chest pressing against his arm, he inwardly relished the feeling, but his face remained serious, “You’re a teacher of the people; you shouldn’t believe in ghosts and spirits.”

“But… but there really is a ghost…” Han Xin’er was almost in tears. Though she was a vice dean, she was still only in her twenties and looked like a little girl at that moment, her face filled with grievance.

“Well, I’d actually like to see what sort of ghost it is.” Liu Hun smiled and intended to enter the classroom.

However, Han Xin’er tightly grabbed his arm, and Liu Hun had to stop, somewhat helplessly saying, “Dean Han, have you taken enough advantage of me yet?”

“I… you…” Flustered by Liu Hun’s words, Han Xin’er quickly released his arm, her pale face flushing with red.

Seeing Han Xin’er let go, Liu Hun rolled his eyes and headed straight for the classroom.

“Liu Hun…” Just as he reached the classroom door and was about to push it open, Liu Hun was once again stopped by Han Xin’er.

“What do you want, miss?” Liu Hun turned around, looking exasperated as he spoke to Han Xin’er.

“I’m scared…” Han Xin’er looked pitifully at Liu Hun, showing none of her strong demeanor from the day.

“I’m scared too, Teacher Lin…” Yao Yu also chimed in at this moment.

Seeing the two women’s expressions, Liu Hun felt somewhat helpless and said, “Then follow behind me. As long as I don’t die, you two will be able to live safely.”

The two women, looking at Liu Hun’s determined expression, knew he was set on entering. Realizing they would be even more frightened if they stayed in the hallway, after some thought, they had no choice but to follow him, each clutching a corner of his clothes.

After entering the classroom with the two women, a broken voice immediately reached the ears of the three, saying, “I… I don’t… want to die…”

In the classroom, aside from some equipment, there was only one table, covered by a white cloth, clearly indicating there was a body underneath, and the sporadic voice was coming from there.

“Ghost…” Upon hearing the voice, Han Xin’er and Yao Yu, without thinking, rushed into Liu Hun’s arms.

Liu Hun felt the smooth, jade-like bodies of the two women in his arms and couldn’t help but have black lines form on his forehead.

Normally, he might have enjoyed this, but at that moment, Liu Hun’s eyes showed a hint of solemnity.

Calming the trembling women in his arms, Liu Hun pondered and said, “This isn’t a ghost…”

But no matter what Liu Hun said, the two women clung tightly to him and refused to come out.

“If you don’t believe me, I can prove it to you!” Liu Hun said anxiously to the two women.

Hearing Liu Hun’s words, Han Xin’er and Yao Yu looked up at Liu Hun with half-belief.

Seeing that there was no trace of fear on Liu Hun’s face, they believed him a little; but due to their inherent fear, the two women still didn’t let go of Liu Hun, each holding onto one of his arms.

With no choice, Liu Hun let the two women hold his arms and slowly walked towards the table in front.

“You… go ahead, Yao Yu and I won’t come over…” Seeing that Liu Hun really meant to go, Han Xin’er quickly released Liu Hun, tightly grabbing Yao Yu’s hand, and shakily said.

“I still… don’t want… to die…” The broken voice continued throughout the classroom.

When Liu Hun arrived at the table, he directly lifted the white cloth, and seeing the pale body of the young girl in front of him, Liu Hun’s frown deepened.

The girl looked as if all the blood had been drained from her body, her eye sockets sunken, yet there was not a single wound on her entire body.

Her lips parted and closed, continuously emitting that voice.

Even from a distance, Han Xin’er and Yao Yu could see this scene; their bodies trembled lightly before, but at this moment, even their teeth began to chatter.

“Liu Hun… let’s… go back…” Han Xin’er called to Liu Hun somewhat terrified.

But Liu Hun did not seem to hear her, his face full of solemnity, his hands slowly reaching towards the girl’s body.

“Teacher Lin, what… what are you doing…” Yao Yu saw Liu Hun’s actions, her teeth tightly biting her red lips, her eyes showing a hint of anger.

“I found it…” Liu Hun didn’t pay attention to Yao Yu, his right hand landed on the girl’s lower abdomen, gently tapped, and the girl’s mouth completely closed, the previous voice completely disappearing.

The girl finally stopped speaking, and Han Xin’er and Yao Yu were no longer as scared as before.

“Liu Hun, what exactly is going on?” Han Xin’er asked Liu Hun from a distance.

“To understand the situation, I guess we’ll have to wait until after I’ve dissected her,” Liu Hun said, coming to a cabinet to take out an apron, gloves, and surgical tools.

“Teacher Lin, do you really know how this girl died?” Yao Yu, her lips tightly locked, bolstered her courage and approached Liu Hun to ask.

Looking at Yao Yu’s expectant eyes, Liu Hun paused for a moment and nodded, “Even after I dissect her, I can only find an approximate cause of death at best. Moreover, if the body was sent to the school, it’s clear the police had investigated the cause of death.”

“Every body that comes here has a death report, I’ll get it for you.” With no previous sound and the safety provided by Liu Hun, Han Xin’er was no longer as frightened.

Soon, she took out a death report and handed it to Liu Hun.

“Zhou Jing, died of sudden cardiac arrest, twenty-two years old, a sophomore at Southeast Normal University…” When Liu Hun looked at the last page of the report, a flash of coldness flickered in his eyes.

The signature on the last page for the body’s arrival was Qian Zhongshu!

Although this discovery was somewhat unexpected, upon reflecting carefully, Liu Hun suddenly realized.

“Dean Han, I’d like to ask, what does Teacher Qian usually do?” Liu Hun didn’t rush to dissect the body, but turned to ask Han Xin’er.

“You’re asking about Teacher Qian. He is usually responsible for the bodies in the dissection building, whether they are sent for cremation or brought from the hospital. But because of what happened during the day, I intentionally planned your class tonight…” Han Xin’er’s face turned slightly embarrassed as she spoke.

“Oh? So you mean to say, usually these bodies are handled by Teacher Qian, right?” Liu Hun didn’t bother with Han Xin’er over this matter, but continued to inquire.
